Gotta do what you gotta do.

If I was holding an M16 with a starving lion charging me, I'd do the same thing.

Of course! Who wouldn't? But do you see the comments under the story?

Oh my.

I know!

Let's take those people, give them a machine gun and have four starving lions chase after them and see what they'd do! Then they can teach our armed forced less "cowardly" responses to such a situation!

I don't think it is. This is not a political or war-based post really.

damn, it takes 48hrs to put a messege on there. I put in my $.02 there but i guess they monitor all messeges so only one view will be shown.

Oh well, they probably won't post them.

The comments kind of remind me of the woman who went to protest the running of the bulls in Spain. She was one of those real animal rights kooks who thought if someone would just talk really really nice to the bulls they would be friendly just like a puppy.

So she gets herself on the street where the bulls are ran, and tries to 'talk nice' to one of the bulls as it goes by, I guess she was going to pet it or something. That bull gored her nearly to death. Punctured lung, ruptured spleen, many fractured bones. She almost died.

They interviewed her several months later and she blamed it on the local villagers and those who stage the event, saying they 'enraged' the bulls before she had a chance to 'make friends' with them.

Some people are truly just wasting oxygen.

I suppose if they are not exotic lions then they should be fine....It is better than doing nothing and let it roam the streets of Baghdad

Did the lions shoot first?

US troops= War
Baghdad= War
Shooting animals in a war zone= War

I think you see where I am going.

I've always wanted to grill up some lion.

I hope they ate em, 4 lion carcasses, thats a lot of kiddy meat! Chinese would love it!

 

[Excelsior]

Yeah, those two that commented are obviously retarded. I LOVE animals but if a few, or even one, starving lion was running after me and I had an assualt rife fully loaded there is no question I would take it down. It was either that or I get eaten alive. Id much rather live.

Wrong as usual.

Hmm, the M16 is NOT designed for big game. Talk about under-armed.
